I like the Sam Addams quote, only, it also holds true to minorities pushing evil.
It can, yes. However, that's very unlikely if people are raised with a strong moral and ethical foundation. That's how I see it at least.
Sadly, that seems to be sorely lacking these days. A huge amount of children are being raised by the soft light of a glowing screen that their parents put in their hands to keep them out of their hair. Children are being raised on a nonstop diet of vacuous consumerism. It's seriously disappointing.
I feel like its poison to let corporations and entertainment culture raise children and inculcate into their minds whatever their beliefs are.
At the very least, parents need to take a much more active role in ensuring their children have a very strong moral and ethical foundation that's built on good values. They also need to make sure they don't end up like solipsistic activist nutsjobs who try to force crap onto others because they never learned empathy.
